Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Secondhand Lions is a movie you want to believe in -- original ideas, acclaimed actors -- but McCanlies uses too many broad strokes when subtlety and finesse would have had greater impact.
– Erik Lundegaard,

rotten:
Secondhand Lions manages to squander the services of seasoned vets Michael Caine and Robert Duvall, and promising newcomer Haley Joel Osment, with a tale that is dramatically false and disturbingly vicious.

rotten:
It's pretty appalling, and it's boring.

rotten:
Of little interest to anyone except those who thought Air Bud was too smutty.

rotten:
... Michael Caine is badly miscast in this movie. I didn't believe him for one second in that role.
